The Club's Boats
Black Prince
Karlisch (TR3)
| Maker: | Karlisch |
| Made in: | c.1980 |
| Bought in: | c.1982 |
The history of this boat is shrouded in mystery. "The Karlisch" was built in Germany, perhaps in the early 80s and bought 2nd-hand in 1982 as the new first boat. She was used as such until May 1989 and as the 2nd boat until 1998. The Karlisch is loved by many and indeed has aged well. Wooden boats tend to remain stiffer for longer than more modern plastic ones, particularly very fine ones like Karlisch VIIIs.
